TV Signs and Parent Nights

           This week was great and very enjoyable. We had a parent night on Wednesday in which my job was to pass out ballots about the parent and community reps and explain to the parents to put the ballot in the gray box once filled out. For the first time, I had TV job and what I did was type out the script for the people going on or hold the sign that said "CCTV" in which Miah REALLY wanted to go on TV but she wasn't ready to yet. When Chad, Deriecka, and Kaylin all went up, I had the job of making sure that all slides of the script went through, thankfully I didn't mess up on that. Now for all of my classes, Period 1 (Math): Went from 77.5 to 81 but still aiming for an A this last week of the quarter, hoping with that because big test will be graded soon. Period 2 (Science): I didn't get the vital supply needed to conduct my group experiment but we were able to adapt fast and change our experiment, now we are caught up to date. Period 3 (Basic Keyboarding): Doing great in that class, Aced my written test and type fast enough to have free time that I can use to do other school related activities (studying, homework, ar). Period 4 (English): My class started typing out our embedded assessment, but sadly as I was about to make my last sentence, I made a spelling error and as I was about to delete, it highlighted all so when I pressed, it deleted everything and it was very upsetting especially the fact that undoing didn't work and I couldn't restore it. Period 5 (Leadership): Didn't practice our cheer dance at all after Monday, but we did clean the desks in A102 and we did grade check on Friday. Period 6 (Social Studies): There was SO much movement going on, and i'm being very literal about this. Everytime I get to class I always sit next to someone else and our teacher Mr. Chong lets us go to empty seats if we want, which is sometimes distracting especially when in the middle of a lesson, and we got to watch funny videos.

          My highlights of the week are that I got to go out on Chad's birthday and did pretty good on the event. Simply give the ballot as well as a valid explanation of what to do with it after you are finished filling it out. Another highlight is that my grades are great as there are only 4 A's and 2 B's other than an F which will be edited after my AR is complete. My lowlights of the week are that I never got to finish my AR goal yet, and if I don't I can't come on the retreat. There was a log in problem I had so I never got to actually check my AR goal until Friday. My final lowlight from this week is Mr. Bonilla and his growth mindset speech. On Monday a mistake happened and Mr. Bonilla never got to finish his growth mindset speech, in which he could've just came in again the next week because it looked like he did fine on Monday. Unbelievably, he wants to come back again the next day to repeat himself and add in a few extra sentences that hold no extra significance to his speech whatsoever and there are students who don't even care about his speech and really isn't a reason to say something in relativity to a topic every single Monday and ending it in think about it. This really isn't supposed to be offending but it was really irritating because we had to make room and remake the whole slides to put in his speech which we had to type out. 

          The lesson of the week I learned is patience. Patience is a trait that could lead you somewhere if you just learn how to wait. If I was more patient with Mr. Bonilla's speech I wouldn't have had to have him complain to us about having an incomplete speech because when really, there are more important things around and it could've saved much time. Being patient makes you wait for opportunities and learn to make you feel more okay with waiting. If I would just be patient with trying to make Mr. Bonilla's speech (Only typed partial amount of his speech) and didn't rush before the bell rang, maybe there wouldn't have been an error and we would have gotten through without making this such a major lowlight of my week. This is why patience is a very important lesson.
